Adam Driver was asked about his appearance during a recent interview. He fired back at the interviewer, Chris Wallace.

A hinderance? 

Ferrari star Adam Driver hilariously reacts to crash question

During a recent interview with Wallace for his Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? Max series, Driver spoke about some of the comparisons he's received. Some are nicer than others, such as being compared to Al Pacino and Jack Nicholson. However, some have critiqued his physical appearance. Either way, he tries to avoid absorbing these comparisons.

“The New Yorker has also called me a horse-face,” Driver recalled. “I remember reading one reviewer [who said], ‘His agent probably doesn't know whether to put him in a movie or the Kentucky Derby.' So if you believe the good thing, you have to believe the bad thing. So I try to not absorb anything.”

That's when Wallace took another jab at Driver — saying that he doesn't “look like a typical movie star.” He then asked if that's been “a help or a hinderence” to his career.

Driver, being the ultimate professional, responded politely. “I've worked consistently, which is nice, with people I always dreamed that I wanted to work with. So in that sense, it hasn't [hindered my career],” Driver responded.

“I look how I look. I can't change that. So I guess it helped me. Yeah, I don't know. A hinderance in only breaking mirrors wherever I go and having a misshapen, outsized body that I can't fit through doorways or most clothes or fit into most cars,” he continued.

Wallace continued pushing, asking if Driver ever wondered how his career would be if he “looked like Robert Redford.” Driver awkwardly laughed when Wallace joked that he ponders that.

“I just kind of accepted this is how I look,” he concluded.
